I finally got an action shot of the giant leopard-print bag that MrB gave me for my birthday. It’s a good thing I work out a lot or I wouldn’t have the strength to carry it! What Wendy Wore Top: Anthropologie (2010) Jacket: Boudicca (not sure when I got it; last posted here) Jeans: Acne…

What Wendy Wore: The Purple Jacket Takes Los Angeles
I sneaked off to Los Angeles for the weekend: MrB and I both had business to attend to, and family to see. The one drawback was that I was too booked to have one of my L.A. blogger fiestas.A Next time, peeps! As you might guess if you read my post on casual outfits, I…
What Wendy Wore: A Collection of Casual Looks
Last month, when I wrote about wearing a vintage feather-trimmed gown for the first time since 1995, gorgeous blogger Lexie of Little Boat said, “… you often write about formal dresses — which makes me wonder — how do you dress ‘everyday’? While I know you could definitely rock that dress while grocery shopping, do…
What Wendy Wore: Back in Business With Bloggers
I suffered a relapse of my cold after the big Food & Wine shoot on Saturday, so it was back to bed for me until Tuesday, when gorgeous blogger Tricia of Fashion Herald coaxed me out for the fashion-show launch of MNG by Mango for JCPenney. I will do anything for Tricia! As a bonus,…
What Wendy Wore: Sick Woman Walking
I dragged myself out of my sickbed on Saturday to go to a Food & Wine Magazine photo shoot at my designing friend Zang Toi‘s beautiful apartment. The shoot was a big production involving hordes of people and I didn’t want to let them down by being a no-show. After all, someone had to be…
Foot Fetish: Acne, Sergio Rossi, Bottega Veneta
Thanks to gorgeous blogger Deja Pseu for pointing out the lovely leopard Sergio Rossi boots. Very tempting. But I’ve been looking for gold boots since 2008. What do I have to do to get the shoe fairy to leave all three pairs under my pillow? The gold of the Bottega Veneta boots reminds me of…
Head-to-Toe Denim for Real Life
When I wrote about the head-to-toe denim look last week, I meant it when I said, “Never say never.” I figured most people would pass on the often-unflattering Texas Tuxedo look of jeans and a denim shirt, but that something more wearable would come along. It came along fast! Check out the sophisticated denim looks…
Stripes Gone Wild
I want to wear this dress the next time I see stripe-loving blogger Deja Pseu. The Wall Street Journal says stripes are in, and I believe everything I read in the Wall Street Journal … except for the editorial page, of course.
Outfit Post: A Stitch in Time
I don’t love being in front of a camera. I have one look: a big smile. If I don’t smile, my eyes are still smiling. If my eyes aren’t smiling, I look sad instead of serious or sexy. Plus I’m always disappointed that I don’t look like a young Sophia Loren in the pictures. Inside,…
Acne Outlet
I’m loving that Acne, my favorite jeans brand, now has an online outlet. I finally broke down and got the loose-fitting Generic Girl jeans in peach. I first admired those last July. I wound up getting the style in blue, but always regretted missing the peach. No more regrets!
